Boo!

Happy Halloween. Please rate or comment if you care to. Thanks.

Great colour here, well composed too.

Thank you Ben. This spider had spun his web just outside my door. I found him to be very interesting.

the colors are striking...good composition.

Thank you Kalaga for your nice comments.

An excellent image that ought to interest even the worst arachnophobes out there. Placement within the frame and the unique highlight of the spider itself, are quite eye-catching. The darkened edges assist us to concentrate on the main subject.

The only (slight) distraction, are the curious black lines behind the third leg, at left.

Peter, the artifact is a result of sloppy work in PS. I quickly threw it together for Halloween. This image is a composite. The dark area at the top was added because the camera angle was toward the sky and that area was originally white. Good eye.
